COME, I’LL SHOW YOU
HANNAH, THE HAPPIEST STUDENT IN THE WORLD
Hannah knows one thing for sure: all she wants is to go to school. But since the death of her father, no one supports her to finish her school education. The necessary books and school uniform are simply too expensive for the family. Every cent has to be saved, even to the point of sending Hannah to live with her uncle for a while. There she was supposed to help with the daily chores and be married off. But that would have meant that she would have had to give up school for good. For Hannah, this was out of the question: she is firmly convinced that she can better support her family at home and later with a school degree.

COME, I’LL SHOW YOU THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN
SIERRA LEONE
Sierra Leone (officially the Republic of Sierra Leone) borders Guinea in the north and Liberia in the southeast. Freetown is the country’s capital and economic centre. English is the official language of this former British colony, but most people speak Krio.
>/br>
Over a thousand schools were destroyed during the civil war that lasted from 1991 to 2002. Following the Ebola epidemic (2014-2016), the country is now working to rebuild state and social infrastructure. Both Sierra Leone’s constitution and the 2004 Education Act mandate nine years of compulsory basic education, but full compliance is not possible due to a lack of schools and teachers. The literacy rate of the adult population in 2015 was 48.1% (women: 37.7%, men: 58.7%).
>/br>
Sierra Leone has a great variety of media. After a long debate, 2013 saw the passing of a freedom of information law. Sierra Leone ranked 85th out of 180 countries on the 2020 World Press Freedom Index, published by Reporters without Borders.
